Figure 41. Interface State Change
Consider an interface periodically aps as shown above. Every time the interface goes down, a penalty (1024) is added. In the above
example, during the rst interface ap (ap 1), the penalty is added to 1024. And, the accumulated penalty will exponentially decay based
on the set half-life, which is set as 10 seconds in the above example. During the second interface ap (ap 2), again the penalty (1024) is
